Destro played by Dr Who? That's kinda cool.

Regarding the game, if it's due to come out at the same time as the movie I'd think it'd be pretty much a certainty that it'll be a movie-based game... I'd be surprised if Hasbro had any GI Joe product around that wasn't movie-based, as that's what they did with Transformers. Also, I'd lay odds we'll see a new GI Joe cartoon in 2010 or late 2009 that follows the format of the movie (international characters, black Ripcord, etc). __________________ * * * * * Come check out my Flickr account for more pics of my collection and additional shots from my JoeDios photoshoots.

i wish i cold disagree with you, but your probably right about everything. a cartoon off the movie will really suck. they keep trying to bring the old stuff back, but they change it around to drasticly. none have worked,imo except he-man.

lehsreh G.I. Smurf Offline --> Posts: 3,446 --> Join Date: Jan 2006	just found out that we are going to be getting some battle packs from the cartoon mini series. each will have between 3 and 4 figures. the sets include the mass device(which we have already saw the commander with the hard element). the weather dominator, arise serpentor arise, pyramid of darkness(dont know who were getting from these 3) and the animated movie(which is where the falcon/nemesis comes into play). these will be around the 19.99 price range. we will also be getting some vehicle other then the ones we already knew of. so far there will the V.A.M.P. and armadillo vs. serpentor’s chariot. the price for these will be around 14.99 each, not sure if the armadillo vs the chariot will be 14.99. im guessing not. as for the single packs, so far there are 40 set for 08 at 5.99 each. and the 12 inch line is coming back. dont know what characters there will be yet, but the price will be around the same as the vehicles. kinda costly im thinking, but i dont know as i never bought 12 before.
